Assembling   .9, 1.5,  2.5  &  3.5  Ton Bulk Bin  

The .9 Ton uses  4 

 Leg  2 1/2

 angles 92

 

long 8 

 Leg Spacers 1 1/4

 angles  43 1/2

 long 8-

X Bracing 1

 flat straps  66

 long  4 

 Leg Pads 5 X 

5 Plate w/tab & 20 

 5/16 x 1

 hex bolts and nuts.

The 1.5, 2.5, & 3.5 use  4 - Legs 2 1/2

 an-

gle 92

 Long, 8 

 Leg Spacers 1 1/4

 angles  51

 

long ,  8-X Bracing 1

 flat straps 75 1/2

  long , 4 

Leg Pads 5 X 5 Plates w/tab & 20- 5/16 X 1

 hex  

bolts and nuts.

Step 1:

Bolt the Leg Pads to the bottom of the legs 

using the 3/8 X 1

 Hex bolts.

Now take 2- Legs and 2

 Leg Spacers and 

2

 X Brace Straps and make a section like diagram 

1, put the angles to the inside of the leg  with the 
angle up, on the top one and angle down on the bot-
tom one. Put the flat strap on the out side of the leg 
angle & use 5 - 5/16 X 1

 hex bolts to fasten in 

place, (finger tighten only).  Assemble 2 sections 
like this. Now with help stand the two sections up 
spaced accordingly facing each other, now add the 
leg spacers and X bracing  between them just like 
Step 1 to form a square.           

Now tighten all 

bolts.

    Cone to Frame  .9, 1.5, 2.5 & 3.5 Diagram-2
Step 2:

With the frame assembled drop the cone 

into the frame from the top. There are tabs welded 
to the legs to bolt the cone into place with. Drill a 
5/16

 hole through the top hole in each tab and bolt 

securely  using the 5/16 X 1

 carriage bolts, (bolt 

from the inside out). Now drill the remaining holes 
and bolt securely using the 5/16 X 1

 carriage bolts. 

These tabs are long enough to reach past the sides 
of the cone and down the slope, you will need to 
bend this part into the cone and drill and bolt into 
place using the 5/16 X 1

 Carriage bolts again from 

the inside out. Diagram 2

Note:

If you are putting together a 

(2.5 Bin for 

Mineral Concentrate)

 or 3.5 Ton Bin you will 

need to install the extra support straps. They are 1

 

X  51 1/4

 long. You will need to put them on the 

lowest bolt of the leg tabs. (2 Per Leg)  They will 
fasten to the slide valve bolts later on in the assem-
bly  (Diagram  & 2A)
